The thing that strikes me as funny is that it always come down to that RIDICULOUS idea that these types of things are to be expected. It’s a “human” game.

You know, rather than zombies, unicorns, or cyborgs. Which reminds me I need to put that zomborgicorn i drew the other day up on my fridge.

That just gives another reason on why there should be instant replays in baseball, but only for determining whether balls are fair or foul. You shouldn’t be able to review whether a ball is a strike or a ball; only fair or foul. That will help reduce many blown calls.

Here is an interesting discussion on the instant replay in baseball that you may be interested in: http://www.rootzoo.com/threads/view/MLB/New-York-Mets/Instant-Replay_129160

I saw that blown call. I think MLB needs replay for situations like this. It turned out that the call had no effect on the game’s outcome? But, what if it would have? Mets fans, I am NOT a Mets fan by the way, would have been super ticked if the Mets would have lost this game because of the call.
